The Big Week

A lot is going on this week.

Joe is speaking at church this Sunday.
I am doing two kids services and then setting up for the other two this Sunday.
We are preparing to fly to Indiana this Sunday on a red eye.

While each of those things is bringing our life stress right now they are all good things....

Joe doesn't naturally say, "I want to talk to 600 people this week"...(who does?) but he is prepared and will do great! I'm sure that God will speak through him to the congregation and it will go well.

I am so glad to have all of the young ones I do in my classes! With out them I wouldn't have a purpose at our church or a place to call my own. They often end up teaching me more than I feel I teach them. I get to sit in an office decorated with precious pictures, crafts and mementos from their little hearts!

We miss our families! If that means Joe has to get on a plane and I have to spend a week getting my lists in order, doing laundry, cleaning out the fridge, and leaving my Tyler that's what it takes. The plane will arrive safe, I'll try my hardest not to forget anything, the laundry is done, the fridge will wait, and Kathryn and Tyler will have fun together while we are gone.

I am looking on the bright side!
